We make waffles and put fresh strawberries and whipped cream! Delicious! It is our variation of strawberry shortcake without having to heat up the oven on the super hot nights! Plus it is usually so hot we aren't as hungry or want to eat as much! We use the waffle maker in the summer! We make waffles and put fresh strawberries and whipped cream! Delicious!

Nevermind that I got sweaty slaving over the hot grill. Your post had some great tips and it reminded me of a post I did last summer as the temperature sweltered here in North Carolina. I shared some recipes for some no-cook meals that we really like. http://www.googoobuybuy.com/2008/06/no-sweat-no-cook-recipes-to-help-beat.html I grilled today just for this very reason — to avoid heating up my house.
